Check your pockets. A $1 million Powerball ticket was sold at a Publix in Cumming, and Georgia Lottery is looking for the winner.

Nobody has claimed the prize yet. The ticket was sold for the Aug. 11 drawing, and the winning numbers were 5-43-56-62-68 with a Powerball of 24. The winning ticket matched the first five numbers and did not match the Powerball, Georgia Lottery said.

The ticket was sold at the Publix on 5475 Bethelview Road. The winner has 180 days to claim the prize, meaning the deadline to pick up your million-dollar check is Feb. 9, 2019.

There will be another Powerball drawing on Wednesday, Aug. 15. The jackpot is an estimated $40 million, according to Georgia Lottery.
